We've been asked by the family of Brett to help them honor him on his travel home to peace. How can we not do this! Let's flag it up and help this family with our support and show them just how much this HERO meant to us! This was a great friend of mine! Or should I say BROTHER!
He was a Gulf War Vet serving in Operation Desert Storm. Honorably Discharged 1993. This is a post from one my fellow Bouncers who as I and many more have fond memories of Brett: We've all got those friends you can talk to or call after years apart and pick up right where you left off. I lost one of those friends this week. Brett Collins AKA Cuddy Cuz. We had each others back for years when bouncing at Iguana Beach Club/Sanctuary. Brett never failed to smile and have himself a good time. You could call him names, swing at him, etc and he'd smile the whole time. Mess with one of his friends though and you were in for a bad time on your way out the door. I'll miss you buddy. The minute Schanze told me so many of our memories came back to mind. Teen Night Brawl where we both wound up pepper sprayed when the cop couldn't aim, the many dances and cut ups you'd do every night, and how your face would look when you'd find something out you didn't know, big eyes and all. I'll miss you my friend. Thank you.
